They went down without a fight and that’s what surprised me most. Not a single legal case or even someone complaining on tv. Just went away, backed into the hedge.

Yup. I created a narrative that the d’s gave up because they believe that this would be the only way to get the r’s onboard with basic stuff like universal healthcare. Otherwise they’d riot like they did on 1/6. But… the d party hasn’t changed strategy and they’re a geriatric unit who refuses to step aside for the future of the nation. So now my narrative is that they’re unprepared and don’t care. They’ll benefit financially from this dictatorship and that’s all they care about anyway.

I'm pretty well convinced that all the 'stop the steal' shit in 2020 was to give us all media fatigue for when it actually happened in 2024.

It worked -_-.

and also to prevent democrats from calling it rigged, because now republicans can say "see dems are saying its rigged when we won as well" thats why the Ds dont want to investigate too. of course many in the DNC are complicit as well, theres no way they wernt aware of teh rigging days, weeks, hours ahead of the elections.

I really don't think it was planned that way, but it surely helped them. Remember: with Republican double standards, every accusation is a confession.

Wouldn’t surprise me one bit. It’s what they do, they come out beforehand and accuse the others of doing stuff, normalising the words and watering them down so that they’re used against them it just gets shrugged off.
